I'm thinking of a new book idea along the lines of "You Might Be a Redneck." Mine would be You Might Be a Mom and would have sections like, "You Know You're an At-Home Mom When..." "You Know You're a Work-at-Home Mom When..." and "You Know You're a Mom of Multiples When..."
Today's entry:
You know you're a stay-at-home mom when you save getting "dressed up" in blue jeans for special occasions like going out for coffee with girlfriends.
The leggings I wore all day today (before shimmying into sexy maternity jeans) are very comfortable and would have been just fine . . . if they weren't simultaneously too baggy everywhere and yet too short to meet up with my socks. Alas. None of those features (the fact that they're leggings and I no longer have "long" shirts, the fact that they're too big, the fact that they're too short) disqualifies them from being part of my regular pants rotation.
In fact, I put them right back on when I returned home from book club.

LOL! - I Got "dressed up" in jeans to go have coffee with friends this morning. I even wore my Target knock-off Uggs. :)
Oh, fancy day!
I realized I'd been letting things slide when I pulled off my sweatshirt (revealing a long-sleeved t-shirt underneath) and whipped my hair back into a loose ponytail because the house was hot . . .
And my husband looked at me with appreciation. "You look nice!"
